So? Independant suspension requires one wheel to be able to move
independently of another. Which a swing axle allows. Prime example being
the Triumph Herald/Spitfire.

The Herald had a transverse spring which was bolted to the diff in the
centre.
The later Spitfires had a transverse spring which had a sliding mount on
the diff.
I would say that makes one of them independent and the other better.



never seen a 'sliding mount' on any spitfire ever.
